I have heard through an e-mail to me that on thursday a news program was
aired in Denver that said that the major phone companies are petitioning
the FCC to charge all persons for their connections to an ISP.

This would mean that you would have to pay per minute fees to a phone
company for a connection to your ISP, even when there may be few other
local charges.

This could very seriously cut into the availability of the internet to
all users across the board.

The person who E-mailed me told me to write your congressman, senators,
and the like.

That person also said to E-mail your views on the subject to:

fccinfo@fcc.gov

Thank you.
